Beyond Social Skills
Student drop off classes are for parents who understand the benefits of Relationship Development Intervention (RDI) but do not have the time to begin RDI at home. Our groups are run by certified RDI consultants and trained RDI extenders. We use this bio-psycho-social approach to target deficits in flexible thinking, joint attention, episodic memory, self-awareness, experience sharing communication, and dynamic thinking. Our classes are developmentally staged and students will be assessed prior to starting a class.
